I’m sure that’d go over well.

I live in America but you could call me Europe because, yeah, same.

Though, I guess, if my services are hosted at home they’re technically American services… Though not always running American software.

This just in: tourist traps exist

The best part is that, if you’re on the fence, you can just run both. That’s what I did at first, but I’ve since let plex die.

We wouldn’t be banning vaping, we’d be banning disposable vapes.

I think they might’ve broken the laws of math there, as they’re certainly still spending a non-zero amount.

I’ve been cruising with the most expensive model at work for a while now. After github’s pricing model change they finally asked us to be more conscious about which model we’re using (which was hilarious after we were constantly asked to use more AI), but eh, it’s easier to just leave it on Claude 4.8. I figure eventually the costs will catch up with the company.

Ngl I might use auto speed, I’ll definitely at least try it. It sounds like one of those things that, if it works would be awesome, but honestly I’d be surprised if it works and I end up leaving it on. I’d love for videos to be sped up the perfect amount for me, but I highly doubt that this feature will know how fast that is.

Ask music sounds dumb as hell and, after reading the article, idek what on-the-go mode is.

Edit: At first glance auto-speed seems kinda lit. I love the idea of saving time by watching videos at a faster speed, but feel like it ruins the experience, so maybe this could be a good stop gap. I’ll have to see if I like it long term. I’ll try to remember to return here to edit (but I’ll probably forget). On-the-go seems kinda neat I guess but I don’t think I’ll use it ever again. I didn’t even bother trying ask music.

I also use a fork on most systems, but I still use Firefox pretty often, and I can think of a lot more ways it could be worse and isn’t being enshittified.

Yes, I do. I wasn’t the one who said I don’t have any subscriptions.

I’ve never understood TCGs when games that don’t rely on gambling exist and are really fun.

Proxies seem like the only reasonable way to play a TCG.

I refuse to pay for any monthly subscriptions

Must be nice to own your house and live off grid, but I can imagine that it’s annoying to have to visit the library to use the internet.

Some things, such as water, internet, electricity, and even Email have constant costs. Sometimes subscriptions are dumb, yeah, but I very much like having electricity and stuff without having to generate my own.

FBQ is amazing. I love it. It’s exactly what I was looking for when I was trying to set up file sharing.

Until we’re hosting a bespoke cloud service for everyone we know

Oddly enough, when I offer friends free cloud storage they don’t really seem to care. I dunno if they just don’t understand what that’s worth, don’t trust me, or what. I do have some family members on Immich, but that’s about it.

Your BS AI generated rundown didn’t even mention the cost to software development. Dealing with DST is a thorn in my side, it’s definitely cost the company I work for tens if not hundreds of thousands of dollars just in the few years I’ve been there.

I absolutely agree that permanant DST is preferred, and am shocked that that’s the proposal here, as usually the idea is to make standard time permanant. I work in an office, so I don’t care how dark or light it is when I get up in the morning, but I’d kill for more time after work. I’ve, of course, tried to get my office to allow me to shift my schedule but that doesn’t fly of course.

I mean just because minimum wage is too low doesn’t mean we shouldn’t change to permanent daylight savings.

You’re not just right [idk how to type an emdash on mobile] you’re dead on. Their comment was absolutely written by AI and [emdash] by the way [emdash] you’re just really smart. Additionally, I’d argue that including the AI generated portion of their comment doesn’t only make no sense [emdash] it’s an absolutely bizarre decision.

As much as I love those, I feel like that’s an incredibly hot take lol.

In 2013 when it realeased it was amazing, and even now it barely feels dated.
